The following touching story Of
Lincoln ia related to the Ch;cago
Mail by Colonel Dayton: Shortly
after tho hattlo Of Getlyburg, Gen.
Sickles, badly wounded, vns brought
to Washington by some mcmbeis OF
his staff, and was takon 10 tho r,i-
vale house q n Mr.. Dale, on i
street, opposite, or nearly opp"s-
ito the Ebbitt House. Tho braNe
hero OF many q hard won field was
very near his last muster. The
morning after his arrival President
Lincoln With his boy Tad wa1 an-
nounced. lie walking with solemn
step into the room where the Gener"
al lay hardly Gaspiug. We all Thought
no was dying. Dr. Simms was hold
ing his pulse, and "a Mr.. Line Jlu mp.
preached the bedside with Tad, he
was much affected IIo raised his
head to heaven, while big drops Of
tears fell from his eyes, and offered
up the most fervent prayer | ever
heard. Not II dry oye WAS in that
ro. m; oil, even rud, were eobbing.
cannot remember tho exact words
of the prayer, but this portion will
never be cfiared from my memory:
Dh, God, lot me not lose all my
friends in this war Lincoln was very
fond Of General Sickles aud visited
him almost every day, and sent how-
ors of the choicest kind TO his room
daily from tho White House conscr-
vatory.'
